A method to obtain quantitative information about the chemical composition spatial distribution on rough (Ra between half a micrometer and tens of micrometers) surfaces is developed by using a Raman microscopy technique. It is tested on a wrinkled polyeste ...
We present a real-time method for detecting deformable surfaces, with no need whatsoever for a priori pose knowledge. Our method starts from a set of wide baseline point matches between an undeformed image of the object and the image in which it is to be d ...
The electrochem. properties of IrO2 and RuO2 nanoparticles, deposited on synthetic B-doped diamond (BDD) surfaces, are discussed. After a description of the prepn. procedure and the morphol. characterization of BDD/IrO2 and BDD/RuO2 samples, the dispersion ...
We establish how the spectral decomposition for a Riemann surface determines the allocation of the bounded cohomology over the representations of SL2(R). Then we explore the connections of the Dilogarithm with the continuous bounded cohomology of SL2(R) an ...
The lens major intrinsic protein (MTP, AQP0) is known to function as a water and solute channel. However, MIP has also been reported to occur in close membrane contacts between lens fiber cells, indicating that it has adhesive properties in addition to its ...
This paper proposes an efficient method to estimate the distance between discrete 3D surfaces represented by triangular 3D meshes. The metric used is based on an approximation of the Hausdorff distance, which has been appropriately implemented in order to ...
We describe a novel single-coil mutual inductance technique for measuring the magnetic penetration depth lambda of superconductors at 2-4 MHz as a function of temperature in the 4-100 K range. We combine a single-coil configuration with a high-stability ma ...
Electron crystallography and atomic force microscopy allow the study of two-dimensional membrane protein crystals. While electron crystallography provides atomic scale three-dimensional density maps, atomic force microscopy gives insight into the surface s ...
This paper presents the analysis of an original design of small hybrid solar plant using Organic Rankine Cycles with hermetic scroll expander- generators. The hot supply is provided from vacuumed collector tubes along the focal line of solar concentrators ...
We give a self-contained discussion of recent progress in computing the non-perturbative effects of small non-holomorphic soft supersymmetry breaking, including a simple new derivation of these results based on an anomaly-free gauged U(1)(R) background. We ...
